MariaDB 10.6 doesn't install all files

[Uqbar]

On a clean installation over 22.04 I am missing some files under /etc/mysql directory.
I could fix that with this command:

apt-get install --reinstall -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confmiss" mariadb-server-10.6

Moreover, I used the package search to check the content of the above package for amd64 but I have got ERROR 500. It worked for other architectures.

Hi Uqbar!
Can you please describe the exact steps for me to try to reproduce this?

I can not reproduce it with:
$ podman run -it ubuntu:22.04 bash -c "apt update && apt install mariadb-server && stat /etc/mysql/mariadb.cnf"

I have no idea why you are using podman as I haven't mentioned it.
I tried a simple "apt -y install".
Anyway, I cannot reproduce that anymore as I fixed the issue by myself as described.
I have now put is as invalid as I cannot follow up on your request.
